Despite a top-tier dividend yield of 5.33%, the company's dividend track record is unstable and payments have been volatile over the last decade. However, dividends are well-supported by earnings with a low payout ratio of 36.6% and an even lower cash payout ratio of 9.9%, suggesting sustainability from cash flow perspectives despite high debt levels.
